MLB: Prepare for shock and collapse

If it were to be covered up for any reason my first thought would be because Clemems and Damon are in the race for the post season and the others basically are not.

While there may be racism at play sometimes, it always gets trumped by the love of money.
 
Make it right by voting Fred McGriff into the Hall of Fame - a clean HR hitter that fell behind the juicers but would have stood out more otherwise.

And watch CC, Rocco, Gomes, Huff & Co - the low budget payroll DRays - just took 2 of 3 from the Yanks - on form since the break

Actually, yeah, he was. The man's always been a physical specimen -- his workout regimine is legendary.
I wouldn't say always. The Red Sox were willing to let him go to Toronto because he wasn't taking care of himself back then, and his performance showed it. They thought it was the beginning of a slide into mediocrity for him. But what do you know... Roger became a physical specimen again. How 'bout that!

i am also wondering this
i just went to foxsports espn adn cnnsi and theres nothing about it
if this was being reported it would EVERYWHERE
esp cuz they are calling clemens the best pitcher ever and talking about him for another cy young

It's being reported listen to the Fox Sports Network on XM with the #1 sports radio morning show in America, as well as the Jorge Sedano Show.

No major writer is going to risk reporting something like this. I believe there is a very strong chance that the MLB covers some of this up. Especially Clemens and Damon.

As far as the forgiveness being in my mind, actually no. This has been the topic of the day on sports radio and a huge percentage of the audience is forgiving these two, while the same cannot be said for Palmeiro or Bonds.

Bogus Steroid Accusations Against Damon, Clemens

Major League Baseball officials received at least a dozen phone calls yesterday regarding a rumor MLB was about to announce that Roger Clemens and Johnny Damon had tested positive for steroids, with an announcement coming today. "Total BS," one official said. MLB and the players' union had released a joint press release last week, vehemently denying that more prominent players had tested positive in the aftermath of Rafael Palmeiro's failed test. -- 8.18, from Gordon Edes' Red Sox notebook

"I just think people want to start something with anybody. I'd be more than happy to take any test. There's no way. If I tested positive for something, it's going to be because someone threw something in a drink or did something like that. I'm used to that stuff happening to me this year. There's been so many rumors in my personal life in Boston that it's been absolutely crazy. Rumors don't bother me. I know the person I am. What else can you do about it? You're in the spotlight. There's people in Hollywood that deal with it all the time. Our team is the closest thing to Hollywood in baseball." -- 8.18, Johnny Damon on the bogus internet chat board steroid rumors that have littered email inboxes over the last few days

I am not worrying about forgiveness until it is reported as actual news CONFRIMED news right now as of this moment you are passing on a rumor

what if this turns out to be nothing but a bunch of junk
 
Damon denied it yesterday, that's been all over the place. He's going to deny it, just as Palmeiro did, until it becomes public. Because there is always a chance that the test results will be overturned.

Listen people this is not a story that's going to be reported by Brian Williams by 6:30 tonight. The MLB is selectively deciding when and how to allow the news to break.

They knew about Palmeiro long before the results were made public.

Forgiveness of something that's simply a rumor? Hell, I'll forgive a guy who hasn't been officially proven guilty of anything too. And again, I still submit that America's viewpoint of Bonds has very little to do with his race.

Well technically they are only three races, however latin Americans are certainly recognized as a race in America and as a minority.

Actually, there is only ONE race...The Human Race. You can't discuss minority players in sports anymore, as that field has been level for years. The only white oppression is from the power base, and that is more about $$$$ than anything else. If the powers were truely racist, there would still be black leagues, white leagues, etc. Greed drives the entire sports industry, and the owners will exploit anyone of any color to meet their #s.

yes mlb baseball did know about palmeiro weeks before they broke the news

all i am saying is that until it is confirmed all you are doing is spreading a rumor and talking about forgiveness when its a rumor most people wont care until its confirmed

so was this never true?
anyone heard anything else about it?

It wasn't true--just rumors. Johnny Damon even had a press conference where he said it was a lie. I never believed it of him.
